"Love Is A Crime" Lyrics

Oooh Yeah
Chicago

If love is a crime baby
I'd do my time
Whether it's wrong or right
You can sentence me to life
If love is a crime baby
I'd do my time
Whether it's wrong or right
You can sentence me
Sentence me to life

Some might say I'm guilty of love in the first degree
If the jury wants to lock me up and throw away the key
There's no greater punishment than what I face inside
Won't tamper with the evidence cause there's nothing to hide

(He lives inside my heart)
(I'm in the middle too)
I'm in the middle too
(You never had a clue)
Unless you felt it too

(If love is a crime) baby
I'd do my time
(Whether it's wrong or right)
(You can) sentence me
Sentence me to life
(If love is a crime) baby
I'd do my time
(Whether it's wrong or right)
You can sentence me
Sentence me to life

Better tell the truth, just let me plead my case
The thief who stole my heart from me I couldn't let escape
He's my only alibi, but I won't drop a dime
So how can I give up to you, my partner in crime

(He lives inside) my heart
(I'm in the middle too)
Ooh yeah yeah
(You never had a clue)
Unless you felt it too

(If love is a crime) baby
I'd do my time
Whether it's wrong or right
You can sentence me
Sentence me to life
(If love is a crime) baby
I'd do my time
Whether it's wrong or right
You can sentence me
(Sentence me to life)

You can take away my freedom
But you can't take my love from me
I won't die a lonely prisoner
'Cause my heart will set me free
Oooh ooh yeah
Whooh!
Chicago

I said now
(If) love is a crime baby
I'd do my time
(Whether it's wrong or right)
Ooh
(You can) sentence me
Sentence me to life
(If love is a crime baby)
I'd do my time
(Whether it's wrong or right)
You can (sentence me)
Ah c'mon!
(Sentence me to life)

I said love, love oh!
(If love is a crime baby)
(I'd do my time)
(Whether) it's wrong or right
(You can sentence me to life)
Ooh said love is a crime oh
(If love is a crime baby)
Ooh yeah
(I'd do my time)
(Whether it's wrong or right)
You can sentence me
Sentence me (to life)

I said love is a crime
